What wan a quiet s, sslon of the j city council ended last night in a spirited debate between Aldermen ! Annandale and Uryson. on the merits of the new agreement between the i city and the harbor engineer. Alderman Annandale, chairman of the harbor committee, rose as a matter of privilege to refute a statement In the \ press (a report of the last week's ses-1 lion of the council) to the effect that the engineer would receive more mon. y than if the old agreement had been carried out. Following this Alderman Hryuon then stated that he was still of the opinion that the new agreement was the better one���for the engineer. He ijuoted figures to offset those given by ihe chairman of the harbor committee and stated that if the reporters had given less Ottawa, April 6.���Assistance to the i said a most careful inquiry had been iron and steel industry of Canada, a ! made for over a year into the cost cut in one class of agricultural im- : of production of agricultural imple- half of the Citizens' league, his lord- i publicity to Alderman Annandale's ship made an order absolute for a writ of certiorari.

The discussion, which was growing really interesting, was ended rather abruptly when Alderman Qoulet moved adjournment. ?ome Figures. Alderman Annandale's contention that the city was effecting a saving under the new agreement was supported by the following statement: l.'nd' r the' old agreement the engineer had been paid up to January 81, 1H14. $.'6.60(1, which with the account rendered totalling $7S23.

So pleased were those present at the able management of affairs carried out by the retiring officers that, on motion, the entire list was unanimously re-elected to office. In the reports read and also the remarks made by several speakers, including two of the medical fraternity, the efforts of the order, starting on a small scale, have enlarged to a ge- gree where the work is beginning to be generally appreciated throughout the city. Especially so has this been found among citizens who have been rendered assistance in the way of nursing at such times and under circumstances where the cost of a regular trained nurse would have been almost an impossibility. Words of praise were showered on Miss Downham, tlie nurse brought to the city in April, 1913, from the headquarters of the order in Ottawa, for her untiring work in paying visits to various homes situated over the entire city. The president, Mrs. T. D. Trapp, occupied the chair and in a brief address mentioned the efforts of the I ladies in organizing the branch and how it had progressed to such a degree that it was altogether probable that another nurse would have to be added to the staff before t'ne present yea: was out.

The speeches today were generally much more conciliatory in tone than those which marked the bill's earlier passages. John E.

Times a Changed Paper Since Reduc n Price���Literary Reviews Treated Differently. Hon has been so marked of late, and the circumstantial rumors iu Fleet street made the recent lowering of the price of the Times to two cents one of the expected things In journalism. The Times of today is not even like -the Times of a month ago. Interviews appear in its columns and book reviews have Jumped from the literary supplement ithe fines: thing in English literary reviews of today) to the news pages, and the two foreign news pages thai were the special glory of English journalism have assumed a different character, while the parliamentary report is exceeded by other l-ondon papers.

Every now and again some jingoist rises to warn the world that it is on the verge of a great war, that relations between certain powers are so strained as to justify the conclusion that an outbreak of hostilities is imminent. There have been times when these alarmists received considerable attention, more attention perhaps than they deserved, but the present is not one of those periods. As a matter of fact most of the great nations appear to be too busy with internal problems to give thought to waging war on each other and it is doubtful if such a peculiar state of affairs as now exists has been known in the concert of the powers within the memory j cream of England's letters Of living man.

Trade in Germany is dead; there is no work for the laborer and bread is scarce. Germany too is busy at home. Russia still is staggering under the load let down on her shoulders by her defeat at the hands of the Japanese. P'urther, the Russian government is very much embarrassed at the present. The present czar is weak and his heir is not expected to live to mount the throne. There is no strong arm of the Romanoffs in sight and the masses are gaining fresh freedom every day. Persecution has failed to keep them down and the bureaucracy is at last, though reluctantly, forced to recognize the people. So Russia has no time to think of war. Austria presents much the same spectacle, though perhaps in a more advanced degree. The aged emperor cannot last much longer and with his death a split in the dual monarchy is looked for. A war would bring ruin only the more quickly. The United States, as a commercial nation, has its new currency legislation to perfect and its regional bank- system to get into working order. It also has its Panama canal to open and test and its tolls question to decide. Anyway, the United States does not want war unless Mexico forces her hand. Japan is the only one left and Japan's naval program will not be in shape for active use for another year at least. Also Japan is heavily in debt, the country is overtaxed and it has to solve a poverty problem much akin to the one which faces Germany. It is a curious fact that while there are any amounl of international problems vexing the diplomats of the powers, any one of which would have been enough to precipitate hostilities a few decades back, each nation today has a pressing trouble of its own which precludes the possibility of a struggle with another power till the internal wound is healed.

A farmer in the Lancashire village of Guide got a nasty shock the other morning. When be went into his dairy he found that all the overnlgl t milk ��� forty gallons of It-���had turned a bright red color. Milk will sometimes go bad within a few hours and turn very queer colors, but In this rase tbe unpleasant hue proved to be due to revenge. A dye of some kind had been added to the milk. It seems tbat someone bad a grudge against the farmer because, while others Lad raised the price of milk, he was tbe only man in the district who stuck to tbe old tariff. Mean minds seem often io work In the same groove. Ouly tbe other day a Reading dentist got into serious trouble for perpetrating a similar revenge on a photographic llr in whose studio was on the floor below his offices. He had quarrelled with t'acm, and in order to get even, had bored a bole In the floor and squirted ink through It upon the pictures ' elow. Then there wai, the Thornton Heath ease which some ; ears ago, caused a considerable sensation in that neighborhood. A gentleman living in Quadrant Road went for a holiday. When he returned he found his house covered witb a ghastly mixture of tar and hideous posters. Tbe offender waa the keeper of a lodging house wbo bad some fancied grudge against the unfortu late gentleman. It ls in little country places tbat spite seems to take Its meanes forms. In August last e. Welsh woman was heavily lined for llini.lng nustard ln the eyes of some sheep which had strayed upon her place. Four of tbe poor creatures were blinded entirely. Everyone who has lived in a country parish knows the Intense rivalry tbat exists at a flower show lime. This rivalry sometimes leads to bitter feuds between neighbors, and the result of such a feud was tried be.'ore the Bath Bench. A western man was charged with doing wilful damage to the vegetables of a successful exhibitor, and the plaintiff showed beans, onions, cabbages, and marrows which had been ruined by having needles thrust Into them. The defendant admitted his guilt, but said that he had had doubts as to whether the plaintiff showed bis own produce, and had adopted this method of finding out. There was a similar but worst case at Godalraing last summer. Some poisonous substance was strew n all through a beautiful garden, and all the plants destroyed. A reward of $125 was offered for conviction, but the scoundrels were never brought to book. Discharged workmen have been known to wreck their spite upon their late employers in scandalous fashion. At Lille, in Prance, is one of the biggest sugar refineries In the country. One night a workman discharged for laziness managed to get into the works and turned on all the taps of the reservoirs tilled with mollasses. Tbe loss was very heavy, but the worst of It was that the whole place was flooded with thousands of gallons of treacle and it was days before the awful mess could be cleaned up. More recently an ornamental lake in Shropshire was emptied by raising the water gate, and a great number . of line trout washed away Into the 1 river or destroyed. This, again, was I a cruel and mischievous act of re- ! '.'���lege*. j Sixty Years Ago. The Swiss President's unassuming status has given rise to many stories.

Still lt Is important to eucour- | of the Prussian diet. According to the figures here given the government ln the space of 27 years has spent no less than ��45,000,COO in Its attempts to provide a Prussian rather than a Polish ownership of the land. The figures of the past year are Illuminating in this respect. In the course of 12 months the co-called colonizing committee bought no fewer than 37 estates and 25 smaller properties, 49,000 acres In all. Of this land, however, scarcely a quarter was owned by Poles, so that although ��.'13,000 of government money went into Polish hands the land bought only amounted to 12,500 acres. This is far beyond the average, since the proportion hitherto has been more than one-third. This fact is significant since it shows the Increased prosperity of the Polish agriculturists. The stronger position of the Polish agriculturist Is shown in other ways also. Scarcely a week goes by without a cry of dismay from the "Junkers" because some big estate held by a Oerman aristocrat Is bought up not by a flerman but by a Pole. The total result is that in spite of official expenditure to the extent of ��45,000,- 000 in 27 years, and great outlays by the "Junker" leagues, the Poles hold more land than ever before. The last 12 years have produced a very important alteration in the Prussian Polish question on the Polish side. The Poles have shown themselves better agriculturists; their labor is cheaper, their management better and altogether little remains of the habitual disorder and incapacity whicli once made the expression "Polish household" the popular expression for chaos and dirt In the household. erclse should cense as soon as chll dren show sigus of being tired, and any approach to exhaustion should be carefully avoided.

Accept Resignation. A further reorganization of the municipal hall staff was adopted lust night following the acceptance of the resignation of Comptroller XV. Griffiths. The office will be abolished ami in its place a post of treasurer- collector was made with Richard Bolton filling the position. Financial Condition. Chairman Rose of the finance com- Tnlttee made a preliminary n port on the financial situation although tew figures were available. A further report will probably be made at the next meeting at which time it I.s thought tlit, estimates for the various committees will be tentatively agreed upon. Councillor Rose first mentioned the receipt of $1,1,'17,500, the proceeds of the treasury certificate sale to Spit- zer. Itorick and company, less $3600 for hank commission and insurance. This sum will he used to liquidate the corporation's liabilities to the Royal Hank and also several other smaller liabilities.

They made an examination of the shack and found everything in order, ; dishes washed and placed neatly awav, ! some* food In the cupboard and every ; indication of a neat and orderly prep- i aration for the duties of another day. They made arrangements for the removal of the body and took posses- i sion of his few effects. A thorough j search tailed to find any correspondence or papers thai would lead lo B solution of the possible cause of death. This morning a coroner's jury after viewing the remains and healing the evidence of several witnesses. came to the conclusion that deceased came to his death by means of the explosion of dynamite* caps attach.-I to a fuse, which deceased had set off by his own hand. The evidence went to show that he was in good spirits on the afternoon preceding his death Questioning failed to elicit any rea Sonable cause for the deed, unless it might he that during the past week lie has not felt well enough to do much work.

Ihe Man Who Assembled Three Hun- dred Thousand Word* Into a sin- gle Work With All Their Subtle Shades of Meaning Is a Scotsman and a llorn Lexicographer ��� He Has Spent 84 Years on the Task. , To marsball more than 300,000 words in perfect order, to trace their ancestry, often along the faintest paths of the past and beyond the regions 01 history, to show bow change has left its mark upon them, to set lorlh their partnerships, to unmask tnem ln their disguises, to discover what various meanings men ln all times and places have ascribed to 1 bem���In a word, to produce the New Knglish Dictionary." that Is the stupendous literary labor which, with the publication of a further sec- 111111 of Sir James Murray's life's work, reaches the end of another of 11s concluding stages. Three hundred thousand words. Such is the size and might of the English language ��� 300,000 main, compound, and subordinate words, made out of thc raw material of 26 li'iters, and minted from every important language ln the world. When you think of this colossal work, and when you meet the general who commands this huge parade of the English language, it is only natural to think tirst of Dr. Johnson, who railed the ee.rliest roll-call ot the words of our tongue���to compare the I wo men and their works. Dr. John- sou began his dictionary at the age of thirty-nine; Sir James Murray was forty-two when he rommenced his groat lifework. lioth were wrong in their calculations as to the time the labor would take. Dr. Johnson "had no doubt" that he could linish hiB task In three years, and when Dr. Adams objected that the French Ac?.- deiny of forty persons took forty years to complete their dictionary, tbe doctor growled out: "Sir, thus lt is. This is the proportion, Let me see; forty times forty, ls 1,600. As three to 1,600, so is the proportion of an Englishman to a Frenchman." Dr. Johnson, during the seven years, poured out many other works; he received but little help; be was troubled with bad health, lie made many mistakes; he put into his work expressions of his own likes, and bates, epigrammatic and mordant Bashes from his own mind, such as: Patriotism.���Love of country; tbe last refuge of a scoundrel. Oats.���A grain which in England Is generally given to horses, but In Scotland supports the people. Pension.���In Kngland generally undemtood to mean, pay given lo a state hireling for treason to his country. And how the two works differ in magnitude! Let me take a couple of instances at random. Under the let- te-r "N" down to the word "niche' Johnson gave 284 words; Sir James Murray gives 3,469. In the first case there are 833 quotatirnB to illustrate the use of the words; in the second, 17.273. Sir James Murray is the Ideal dictionary maker; wide as the poles asunder is he from that curious mixture of characteristic which went to make Dr. Johnson. Like Dr. Johnson, he has erred in one thing. He thought that his dictionary would be completed in twelve years, but be told uie a little while ago. "1 hope we shall tlnlsh It In four years' time ��� In 1917. In tha' year I shall be eighty, and shall celebrate my golden wedding, So we must have a triple feast." It was at a Ume when th s veteran was working tlfte-n hours a day- "tiarder than I have ever worked in my life before!" ��� that I disturbed him In his Utile clearing-house of the* Etigllab language. It Is now nearly thirty years since the dictionary's "bom*"���tbe Scriptorium, it is called ���a house of wood and corrugated Iron, was er.-cted at the rear of Sir James' suburban residence at Oxford. And thirty-four years of unremitting labor in this unique workshop bas not dimmed the enthusiasm of the great dirt'onary maker, He c,eiti'*s to bis desk every morning witn the same, if. Indeed, not a greater eni.h'isi.ism; times does noi bring wearln.iss, still be talks of words wltb eyes that light up wl:h pleasure. He picks one 0111 of a proof sheet which lies in front of lilm, traces it for you down through the ages, tells you Its reantng in one hemisphere, Its significance In an other. A typical Borderer, tall, with heavy moustache, and white, flowing beard, with the high forehead of a scholar, be recalls almost exactly that otbet great investigator in a widely differ- eui field of human endeavor, Charles Darwin. Sir James Murra; was born i'i 1X37, in the little Border village ol DunhollU, live miles from Hawick, the birthplace also of John Leyden, friend of Sir Walter Scott, an Orion- lalls'. of great j�� nius and a poet ot more than ordinary rank.

IlL was to 1111 the position of foreign cor respondent in the Oriental Bank, Lon* I don. Six years later he became a master at Mill Hill School. Two yearsi before this date the Dictionary wai tirst projected as the result of the ap-j peal of Dean Trench, author of 11 number of learned papers on the Kng*; lish language. Under Ihe first editor Mr. Herbert Colerldg.*, a great nephew of the poet, and his suecs sor, Dr. Kurnlvall, a vast amount Oil material was gathered together. Nothing, however, was published, and 1 on Dr. Funiculi's death somethlnc' Ilk.' a crisis occurre*d in the Dictionary history. It was al this juncture "mi Mr. Murray came upon 11,, scans. I Minneapolis, April 6,- Two more men were placed under arrest last night and today a whole menagerie of pets was taken in charge by the police as a sei|iiel to the arrest yesterday of James Ryan, Charles Q, Murphy and Ida Walker, suspected of a series of house robberies covering the last, three months. The pets, which included two dogs, two valuable cats, two gold fish, a canary liird, and 21 chickens, were found in a room in the flat at 2010 Ninth street south, occupied by Murphy and his wife, who also went under the name of Walker. Clothing worth $1,500 was taken away, but the animals wen- turned over to Officer A. L. Bean of the Humane society, who made arrangements with Mrs. 11. Ardson, next door, ta care for them all, except the canary bird, which has become the mascot of the Sou.'h Side police station. In return Mrs. Ordson is to have the eggs from the chickens. The police believe the pots ware stolen from the various homes alleged to have been burglarized by the band and arrangements will be made to Ihave them Identified by the owners, j If possible. A man giving the name of Colmena ] Malone was picked up by the police as ja suspect In connection with the burg* j laries. but was released when be told j them of (Ionian McKay. 1817 Wash- ; ington avenue north, who is said to have admitted helping Ryan dispose' of ; some of the loot. He is said to have ; told of introducing Ryan ;it a hotel ; where sales of stolen garments were i made. president of the International Olympic committee; llchrard de* Villi-, iieuve. counselor of state nnd president of the academy of sports, and Maurice Doiiuay. of the French academy. At the' bead of the committee, which will direct ihe movement, is the Alarqula d.- PoUteae. A propaganda in favor of physical education will be carried out in several ways. L.cl ures and practical di nionatrallons will be given. The cinematograph will be utilised to show the various stages of development of athletics by leaders in this brunch of spoils. The league will give its aid to such organizations as wish to become allied with it. and will do everything possible to put the country in a leading position in uth- letlcs. Paris has also begun a war of extermination of rats. It is estimated that no less than 8,000,000 rodents Infest the city. The central market and the stork yards are- overrun by the pest.

To enable ships' officers to detect their approach to icebergs, there has been invented a inlcrothermometer so delicate that it registers changes in sea water temperature to one- thouaandth Of a degree. TOM FACTOR IM HER WORRIES ! ARE NEW FANGIED France Has Troubles Other Lands Know Not of, Including Freak Cloths. Freak Art and Rats. Pari-. April 6. Paris Is being stir- 1 red by four new movements, Rsts, ! Immoral clothes, freak art and undeveloped physique an* all to be corn- batted by organized forces. While the league of patriotic French women has taken up the. gage against indecent clothes, a reaction has also come to Ihe great vogue e.f cubism, post-impressionism, futurism and other advanced aeatbetlo ar! schools. A group of artists who hold Ultra-acadamlCal principles has been formed. They declare they have felt neglected, and they have decided at least to make themselves heard A new salon i.s to be formed, for even the present official salons show tendencies toward the new heterodox schools. Some prominent artists nre behind the movement, which is likely to constitute a strong revolt anainst revolutionary art. The majority of critics, while' by no means accepting all the claims of the cubists and futurists, freely admit that ihey have led a'r and light into the drv places of art, and that exhibitions from .'.hich Ihev are excluded seem dull and tame. In spit.* of their extravagances, they have succeeded In being accepted as serious pioneers. The attitude of the general public is Interrogatory, if not respectful; there is little tendency to condemn off-hand, and thai it is a clear gain to the innovators. Smne of ihe most prominent men In France have come to the support of an athletic renaissance*. A national league, to aid in tho development of physical education has just been founded with the patronage of such men as Baron Pierre de Coiibertin, In view of the industrial development in Greater Vancouver, actual and in prospect, and to the fact that in the past many manufacturing plants have been lojj to the comnjunity, owing to the exorbitant prices demanded for land, your careful attention is invited to the following: The Coquitlam Terminal Company have for sale to bona fide business concerns, manufacturing sites, all clear and level, with trackage and ample waterfront- age at from twelve hundred and fifty dollars per acre, also home sites for employees at extremely low rates, with excellent school facilities, city water, electric light, etc. Address enquiries to TERMINAL CO., LTD.
